|

|
R-2
|

A.Â
The boundaries of the CF, R-A, R-1, R-2, V, C, and
I Districts shall be as shown upon the map attached to and made a
part of this chapter,[1] which shall be designated "Zoning Map." The said map and
all the notations, reference and other data shown thereon are hereby
incorporated by reference into this chapter as if all were fully described
herein.
[1]
Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is on file in
the Township offices.
B.Â
The boundaries of the FP Districts shall serve as
overlays to the underlying districts as shown on the Official Zoning
Map, and as specifically described on the Flood Insurance Rate Map
prepared for the Township by the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) dated September 4, 1987. That map and all notations, reference
and other data shown thereon are hereby incorporated by reference
into this chapter as if all were fully described herein.
A.Â
The boundaries between these districts are, unless
otherwise indicated, either the center lines of streets, alleys, rights-of-way,
lot lines, or such lines extended, or lines parallel thereto.
B.Â
Where figures are shown on the Zoning Map between
a street, alley, right-of-way, or lot line, and a district boundary
line, they indicate that the district boundary line runs parallel
to that line at a distance therefrom equivalent to the number of feet
so indicated.
C.Â
Where district boundaries are not clearly fixed by
the above methods they shall be determined by the use of the scale
of the Zoning Map.
When a CF, R-A, R-1, R-2, V, C, and I District
boundary line divides a lot held in single and separate ownership
at the effective date of this chapter, the regulations of either abutting
district may be construed by the owner to be applicable to the portion
of such lot in the other abutting district for a distance of not more
than 100 feet beyond the district boundary line.
